Seating times are at 5:30, 6:30 and 8:15 p.m. The Da Vinci Dining Room and the Michelangelo Dining Room both offer anytime dining options (open seating between 5:30 and 10 p.m.).

The Piazza

It’s the "Best Pizza at Sea" says USA TODAY and we couldn’t agree more. Harkening back to Italian heritage, the Neapolitan-style pizza is hand-tossed and freshly baked right on deck. From traditional favorites like margherita and pepperoni to the daily specials, you’ll find it nearly impossible to pass by without grabbing a slice – or two.

Open 24-hours a day, the International Café located in the Piazza is the place for an ever-changing array of small bite meals, treats and gourmet beverages. Grab a freshly baked croissant to start your day, snack on pies and quiche or choose from a wide variety of salads and sandwiches at lunchtime, and indulge in decadent desserts in the evening. Coffee and tea fans will love the New Grounds Crafted Coffee menu featuring a variety of specialty espresso-based drinks made from a custom blend of coffee beans, as well as iced tea fusions.

Horizon Court

Horizon Court offers an endless selection that changes throughout the day to satisfy the most discriminating palate. Indulge in a delightful array of worldwide cuisine, freshly baked breads and regional comfort foods, in a casual setting at breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Trident Grill

Follow your nose to the Trident Grill where the burgers are flipping and the hotdogs roasting, served with a variety of fixin’s and crisp fries. Veggie burgers, bratwurst and grilled chicken breast are also served and all are sure to hit the spot when you are relaxing out on deck.

Cafe Caribe

Located very close to the Horizon Court, Cafe Caribe offers buffet with mostly Caribbean cuisine. Opens for breakfast, lunch and dinner and also late-night bistro service.

International Cafe

Open 24-hours a day, the International Café located in the Piazza is the place for an ever-changing array of small bite meals, treats and gourmet beverages.

Coffee and tea fans will love the New Grounds Crafted Coffee menu featuring a variety of specialty espresso-based drinks made from a custom blend of coffee beans, as well as iced tea fusions.

24-hr Room Service

We offer 24-hour complimentary room service when you want to enjoy a quiet moment in your cabin eating a delicious club sandwich or maybe that slice of chocolate fudge cake you can’t forget. Treat yourself to breakfast in bed, or stay in for an intimate dinner, and perhaps even cocktails, in the comfort of your stateroom. 24-hour room service is just a phone call away. *Charges apply on select menu items.

Cruise reviews

"South Americn Adventure"

We had an excellent cruise from Ft Lauderdale to LA. Our cabin was on Deck 8 Obstructed view but we could see the ocean above the lifeboat. The Ruby Princess was modern and we loved the anytime dining than is not available on most Princess ship in Australia. Ports of call were interesting but dominated with Cathedrals, museums, statues of liberators in city squares and distinctive European buildings.

"49 days of adventure and bliss!!!!!"

This was one of the best cruises we have done...embarked in Fort Lauderdale and through the Caribbean down to South America, around the Caleand all the way back up to Los Angeles.
As always Princess cruises looked after up perfectly...the captain we had for most of the cruise was the Commodore of the fleet and he was just fantastic particularly when we were going around the Cape. Weather was on our side too!! We like the Ruby much like the Diamond Princess and as always we didn't want to get off !!!
We only started cruising 3 years ago and I had to drag my husband on the first one to New Zealand....he said he would rather eat razor blades than cruise until he did the first one and now he is well and truly hooked...have done 6 since then (1 with HAL) and if we weren't still running our business we would be doing a lot more.!! We have stuck with Princess because we feel that they really look after you, nothing is too much trouble and there is always a smiling face to greet you at your cabin each day!! I truly believe it is the ultimate holiday for us ladies....no cooking, no cleaning and a chocolate on your pillow each night, who could ask for more !!!!!???

"Princess Med Cruise"

If there is fault it has to be in their dinning of anytime the service is slow plus if you want a coffee after your meal it is a chargable service. We decided to use the buffet and other resturants rather go back to the anytime dinning resturant. For some reason thie cruiseline doesn't have a self serve coffee machine that is standard with other cruiselines these days that spits out the several varieties of coffees you can get these days in its buffet resturants it only has expresso coffee available while open also it doesn't have soft service ice cream or whipped cream available for sponge or cake desserts which makes them rather dry. Overall it is an excellent company to cruise with

"Princess Med Cruise"

This cruiseline has the most user friendly cabin layout we have come across. The food is great entertainment is great but dancing etc. poor each segment is short.Went to a rock and roll dance party which you would expect to go on for the evening all over in an hour then something else with different band takes over the floor just when things are starting to warm up. Service in their anytime dinning is slow.Unlike other cruiselines they don't have the the selfserve coffee machine that generates several varieties of coffees you can get these days only have expresso coffee available unless you go to the on board coffee shop at a bar.
